We recently booked a trip to Alaska and it was our first one ever. My family and me ( 2 boys 10, 8 and one girl 7) decided to go fishing and check out the outdoors in Alaska. It was the best decision we have ever made! We stayed at the Clover Pass Resort and sent home A LOT of fish. I would recommend to anyone to get a charter and stay at a fishing lodge because they knew exactly where to take us and made sure we had the best experience. We will continue to go back years from now. Here is a link to them if anyone is interetsed. The people who own this lodge own 2 other, so there is a few different options. Check out their site.
